Sausage and Egg Breakfast Sandwich Ingredients
Everything about this Breakfast sandwich is good. There are 4.5 parts to it, and it truly tastes like a restaurant-quality breakfast sandwich (from a nice restaurant, of course).
- Bun – pick your favorite bun, from brioche to sliced sourdough bread. You could even use dinner rolls. Make sure to butter and toast it first – that step adds tons of flavor and nice crisp texture.
- Breakfast Sausage – I like to make my own with ground pork, tabasco, salt and pepper, but you can use a pre-formed breakfast sausage patty.
- Eggs – make fluffy scrambled eggs or you can do fried eggs with a wet yolk if you prefer.
- Cheese – there are tons of options, and you can use what you have on hand. I added a slice of Colby-Jack cheese.
- Guacamole – Make a spicy guacamole, and instead of tomatoes, I added a bit of mayo for more flavor and to keep the avocados from browning.
How to Cook Breakfast Sandwiches for a Crowd
Precook your eggs and cover to keep warm. Throw several sausage patties on the grill at once. Towards the end of the grilling time, butter and quickly grill all of the buns together. Serve assembly line style pulling cheesy sausages right off the grill. This is so much better than dining out. These guacamole brunch sandwiches will be the highlight of your next summer brunch party!
The ingredients are so simple and these sandwiches come together quickly which is perfect for brunch entertaining! P.S. Scroll to the bottom for the bacon option!
To Substitute the Sausage
You can replace the breakfast sausage with bacon or even turkey bacon, or use your favorite deli ham.
Sausage and Egg Breakfast Sandwich
Ingredients
Breakfast Sandwich Ingredients (for 2 sandwiches):
- 2 Burger Buns, or Brioche Buns
- 4 large eggs
- 4 Slices Colby Jack Cheese
Spicy Guacamole Ingredients:
- 1 medium ripe avocado, peeled and seeded
- 3 Tbsp diced red onion
- 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1/2 tsp TABASCO® Sauce, or your favorite hot sauce
- 1/4 tsp salt, or to taste
Breakfast Sausage Ingredients:
- 1/2 lb ground pork
- 1 garlic clove, pressed
- 1/2 tsp TABASCO® Sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
Instructions
How to Make Spicy Guacamole (make first and refrigerate):
- In a medium bowl, add avocado and coarsely mash with a fork. Stir in 3 Tbsp finely diced onion.
- In a small bowl, stir together 1 Tbsp mayo and 1/2 tsp TABASCO® Sauce and add to guacamole. Season with 1/4 tsp of salt or to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
How To Make Breakfast Sausage Patties:
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 lb ground pork,1 pressed garlic clove, 1/2 tsp TABASCO® Sauce, and 1/2 tsp salt. Mix with your hands just until well blended.
- Divide into 2 patties, flattening them into 1/4″ thick patties (don’t make them any thicker since they shrink and plump up).
To Cook and Assemble Sandwiches:
- Heat a non-stick surface like cast iron over medium-high heat. Lightly butter the cut-side of buns and toast buttered side only in pan until golden brown then remove to 2 serving plates.
- In the same skillet add sausage patties. Cook undisturbed 2 minutes then flip, top each with 2 slices of cheese and cook additional 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat and cover with lid to keep patties warm and cheese melty.
- While the sausages cook, place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add a dab of butter. Add 2 beaten eggs and push eggs around with your spatula at first then let cook undisturbed until nearly set. Fold the egg in half and in half again then remove from heat.
- Transfer your first cheesy sausage over the bottom bun and top with your folded egg. Spread with a generous amount of guacamole and cover with top toasted bun. Repeat steps 3 and 4 with remaining 2 scrambled eggs to finish the second sandwich. Serve warm with more TABASCO® Sauce as desired.
